Item Details

Brand: Pierce
Origin: Switzerland
Movement: Mechanical (manual wind) — running
Case: Silver-tone, open-face, Art Deco engraving
Condition: Used — good, running condition
Condition

The movement is running and winds manually. The dial shows age-related patina and light scratches consistent with its age. The case back is intact (not cracked) but the latch mechanism does not close securely — priced accordingly. The case itself shows wear consistent with age. The original braided fob cord is included.
Why This Piece Is Exceptional

Swiss-made pocket watches from established makers like Pierce represent a golden era of mechanical watchmaking. The Art Deco engraved case back adds distinct period character, while the fact that the movement still runs after all these decades speaks to the quality of its original construction.
